A "PAF" spirit revisited in the Pearly Gates range
The Pearly Gates is part of Seymour Duncan's humbuckers inspired by vintage tones: dynamic attack, natural sustain, and a well-defined character without excessive compression. In the neck version, the SH-PG1N-W aims for an ideal balance between warmth and definition, with a white aesthetic perfect for complementing your instrument.
For which styles and guitarists?
Designed to cover a wide range, this humbucker pickup is aimed at guitarists seeking musicality and responsiveness, from blues to classic rock, including southern rock, jam, and hard rock. In the neck position, it highlights vibrato, bends, and melodic phrases while maintaining clarity on chords.
Split, 4 conductors, and frequency balance: immediate versatility
Thanks to its 4 conductors, the SH-PG1N-W facilitates modern setups (split, combinations, series/parallel depending on your electronics). Its Alnico II magnet provides a more "spongy" and organic response, very pleasant to the touch, while its resonance peak helps maintain a nice presence without harshness. The result: an expressive pickup, perfect for thickening the sound in humbucker mode and brightening the tone in split mode.
